Hi Folks,
Consider these two element declarations:
<element name="A" type="anySimpleType" />
<element name="B" type="anyAtomicType" />
This is my understanding of the difference between anySimpleType and anyAtomicType:
The value of <A> can be any primitive type or a list type, e.g.
<A xsi:type="xs:string">Hello World</A>
<A xsi:type="xs:decimal">12.39</A>
<A xsi:type="xs:boolean">true</A>
<A xsi:type="ex:LotteryNumbers">3 8 19</A>
where ex:LotteryNumbers is defined as a list type:
<xs:simpleType name="LotteryNumbers">
<xs:list itemType="xs:positiveInteger" />
</xs:simpleType>
The value of <B> can only be a primitive type, e.g.
<B xsi:type="xs:string">Hello World</B>
<B xsi:type="xs:decimal">12.39</B>
<B xsi:type="xs:boolean">true</B>
Thus, the difference between anyAtomicType and anySimpleType is that an anySimpleType value can be a list type, whereas that's not legal for anyAtomicType.
Correct?
